Antec 900, great pick. My personal dream case lol (no reason to plop 120 bucks on it when mine works fine, but I'll get one for any future computers I make). Awesome parts :tup:

Nvm, the Tuniq isn't really that bad. You might just need to lap it to make the bottom flatter.

Yeah I had tried lapping it, but the mounting brackets were soo flimsy(even when they were tightened almost all the way down)
 the cooler wouldn't sit in the CPU correctly. The scythe cooler is very sturdy and doesn't move AT ALL. I'd highly recommened it to anyone!!!
